IPhone 3g S acting WEIRD! need help!

I got a brand new iPhone 3g S 32gb white this morning. the sleep button doesnt work. and I can't turn it on or off without connecting it to the computer or putting it in the charger.

Have you tried to do a Restore via iTunes. If so, and you have held the top and front buttons simultaneously for a long period of time and do not get any response, I'd say the phone is defective. Likely you will need to return it to the vendor and ask for a replacement.
An alternative, if that will work in Finland, would be to take it to your service provider and ask for them to help you.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    If your device has been jailbroken during the warranty, Apple will not service it.

    iphone4 upgrade ios5.0.1, done upgrade and reboot itself, iphone stuck at sos mode. need help!!

    By "sos mode" do you mean recovery mode?  If so, you have to connect it to iTunes and restore it.

  • I restored my iphone and updated it but the progress didn't complete and now my iphone is not working. i need help asap.

    my phone was not working only the restore button was available so i restored it and they told me i have to update my iphone 5s as well. i waited till the end the update software was downloaded successfully but then the iphone restarted by itself and now its not working. the iphone screen is shown the picture when you first time open the phone to connect it to an itunes. i connected it by it not working, i restart everything still not working:( i need help asap please. thankyou

    it seems like apple's activation servers have gone down under the weight of the overwhelming amount of activation requests. you will be able to activate your phone once the servers are able to catch up with the activation requests.

    U should call ATT&T and tell them that ur iPhone was stolen and u need to cancel or block your stolen iPhone account so they cannot use it and transfer the same number to a new iPhone ( or other phone)..

  • HT4623 want to unlock iphone to other network providers need help

    trying to unlock iphone so i am able to use any other network but ive tried and i just cant seem to do it does anyone know other ways of unlocking the phone need hel please

    The only ones who can unlock your iPhone is your phone company/carrier.
    You need to contact them and if they offer unlocking for your phone then ask them to unlock it and if they don't, there is nothing you can do.  In this case, you either need to purchase another phone that is fully and officially unlocked or you need to continue to use your phone with your current operator.
    Contact your phone comapny/carrier directly - they are the ONLY ones who can help you.

  • I got the new iphone 6 and now full, need help

    I got the iphone 6+ and in two months it shows it is full.  In itunes it shows that i have 6.4 gigs of pictures, but I only have 105 pic, and not in large format.  This happened to my old 4 as well.  What can I do to get that space back.

        Here I am to save the day mets2015. May I ask did you change the device id on your mobile number on your account? This can be done online at My Verizon. Also, have you powered off your previous device? If you have done both of these steps and still having issues, another option is to activate the device using iTunes on a computer. Once you have done so, please advise of the status so we can assist if more help is needed.
    Thank you...

  • Mini display to VGA weirdness - need help connecting to CRT

    Hello,
    I am new here and recently purchased a Mac Mini (2011, 2.3 Mhz i5 model).
    I am probably in the vast minority as far as monitor choices go, as I am using a NEC FE2111SB CRT monitor. 20" viewable, looks good or better than most LCDs, so I see no need to replace it. I have the mac hooked up via a mini display to VGA adapter and it works, but has some weird problems.
    When booting to Windows 7 through bootcamp, the screen starts off all white (like normal), but then goes black. Nothing. I wait a while, then my normal Windows login screen eventually pops up. So for whatever reason, the entire Windows boot screen (one with win 7 logo, etc) won't show up at all.
    The boot screen does show up if hooked to a LCD. But I tested two CRTs, and the boot screen is black for both, no signal.
    I was guessing that perhaps the boot screen used a weird resolution or refresh rate through Apple's EFI, so I figured I'd try several things. First was simply changing the resolution on the mac side of things. And then I noticed other weirdness. If Lion is set to high resolutions, say 1200x960, or 1600x1200 (or anything besides 1024x768), then I also lose the white (apple) screen that typically pops up when starting the machine. The white screen being what you see when it first starts, then you can press the keyboard to get the apple OS choices (if bootcamp is installed).
    So basically what I have is: if I leave lion at 1024x768, I get the white apple boot screen, and it boots into lion normally.
    If lion is anything besides 1024x768, I lose the white boot screen, and am loading lion blindly, just waiting for the lion login to hopefully pop up eventually.
    If lion is set at 1024x768, then I do get the mac boot screen, yet bootcamp/windows is all black until windows 7 boots up. I have not found any resolution or refresh rate at all that will allow me to see the windows 7 boot screen when using bootcamp, and this adapter + CRT.
    Any suggestions? I have tried two minidisplay to vga adapters, apple's and rocketfish, both had the same problems. Although I found the apple branded one to be a little more finicky than the rocketfish adapter.

    Possibly too many adapters.
    Signal strength dropped off when I used minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI-to-VGA/VGA-keyboard-viedo-mouse splitter, and "nothing" came through.  minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI cable worked fine.

  • I upgraded my wife's iPhone 5c to iOS8. Need help

    Hello all. I upgraded my wife's iPhone 5c to the ios8 last night. All day or had been showing the cloud drive as upgrading. I don't think that this is right? Any help is appreciated.

    She will have to log into your iCloud account on her iPhone and select My Photo Stream in the Settings/iCloud/Photos window.  That raises problems regarding her own email, calendars, etc. since she will be logged into your iCloud account.  She'll be getting your email, messages, etc. if those options are enabled. 
    Have your wife create shared photo streams to share with only you each month,.  Then you can download from the shared streams and import into iPhoto.
